WELL LEFT ..........MR. DEPENDABLE !!!!!

TRIMURTI OF INDIAN CRICKET
The Indian cricket and perhaps the test cricket for the guys like me always became a boring caravan for the guys or legend like DRAVID and Laxman. But as I grew understood the value of DRAVID and so of technique.Really, RAHUL is the epitome of technique in cricket.He has achieved everything what any newcomer would dream of.




Popularly and rather fondly called as THE WALL has reinvented himself a numerous time .As far as I can  remember ,I became a real fan of him since the 1999 WC match against SL inwhich along with Ganguly he made a world record partnership.As Ganguly has been always my favourite ,the dark phase of  Indian cricket during Greg Chappel, Ganguly was dethroned from captain and Dravid was given the responsibility I felt a bit unhappy or it would be more appropriate to say felt can't say with what.But despite of that my respect for his talent and attitude never decreased.

The whole world will always remember him for altruistic nature.He was a versatile cricket as his records speaks .A terrific batsman in both forms and highest number of catches in tests along with more than 100 in ODI. He took a big leap in versatility and caricature during WC 2003 ,when he agreed to keep the wkt enabling team to play with extra batsman.


Last year when everybody was failing in England he, rose to the occasion and tried his best to save the country's pride as a world champion .Everybody was expecting the same from him in Aus also but aghast! he couldn't repeat the same in which he is specialist and got out bowled 6 times out of 8......the end was sensing soon.............and at last ended on 9-3-2012.

  He did everything what a man could dream much before this AUS tour .........how could it would have been if he would have hanged his willow after England tour only.
